Composites and Metamaterials By (author): Roderic Lakes (University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA) "This is a superb book by a world-renowned and extremely original scientist. The author has a long-standing and exceptional experience in the field of composites and metamaterials. He is known for his many breaking through contributions, which include the invention of the negative Poisson and negative stiffness concepts. Therefore, I believe that this book will remain a reference for a long time to come." Professor David Bigoni

Materials and Energy
Energy and sustainability are keywords driving current science and technology. Concerns about the environment and the supply of fossil fuel have driven researchers to explore technological solutions seeking alternative means of energy supply and storage. New materials and material structures are at the very core of this research endeavor. The search for cleaner, cheaper, smaller and more efficient energy technologies is intimately connected to the discovery and the development of new materials. |

World Scientific Series on Carbon Nanoscience
The goal of this book series is to publish selected handbooks, graduate texts and stand-alone review monographs with specific themes, focusing on modern topics and new developments in experimental and theoretical physical chemistry and chemical physics. In review chapters, the authors are encouraged to provide a section on future developments and needs. The thematic coherence and depth of each volume in this series are what distinguish it from the several other book series already existing in physical chemistry. As such, this series should be especially useful to instructors of graduate-level courses and to graduate students. |
